Mémoire sur l'éducation publique, avec le prospectus d'un collège suivant les principes de cet ouvrage. 

[Dijon], s.n., 1764.
More Details >
500 €

First edition.
Early work by Guyton de Morveau, then a lawyer in the Parliament of Dijon.
This writing on education comes two years after the publication of Emile by Rousseau and one year after the Essay on National Education by Chalotais in the Parliament of Brittany. The Jesuits who until then controlled education in France have just been banished from the kingdom, leaving a vacant space for secular education inspired by the Enlightenment. Even if Guyton de Morveau is still timid in his proposals, he is still classified by Buisson among the leaders of the renovation of pedagogy.
In particular, it offers language teaching less focused on the in-depth study of grammar but more on the practice of the language.

First edition.
The Annales de la Société des soi-disans Jésuites is a collection of historical acts, documents, and letters that was published between 1764 and 1771 to denounce the place of the Order of Jesuits in French society. The collection was produced by the Abbé Jean-Antoine Gazaignes and consists of five volumes (Last is missing in our copy). It contains information about the founding of the order, its doctrines, its activities, and its various political movements. The Annales are of great importance for understanding the history of the Jesuits and their influence on French society. The Annales have also served as the basis for many historical works and studies on the Jesuits and their role in French history.
